Our first visitor of the year arrived, Richard Westgate, bringing with him bad weather. We did some tourist stuff whilst waiting to see if the weather would improve, so we went to the hollowed out volcano of Croscat and to the medieaval village of Santa Pau for lunch. We took a trip out to Santa Brigida, because it looked as though the sun was coming out; we got there, and the sun promptly disappeared. All the surrounding hills were clagged in, but Santa Brigida was clear. It was a little windy at first, so Richard flew his speed wing down. By the time he walked back up, it was flyable, and OK for the next hour or two, though base was only 2 or 300 feet ATO. But at least we flew. (Later on, we found out it had been a really epic day in Targassonne!). Back home; I did some work, and Judith took Richard to see Besalu. Then dinner and a lot of wine.
